Let $T$ be a finite tree graph, $T^N$ be the Cartesian power graph of $T$, and $d^N$ be the graph distance metric on $T^N$. Also let \[ \mathbb S_r^N(x) := \{v \in T^N: d^N(x,v) = r\} \] be the sphere of radius $r$ centered at $x$ and $M$…
We exhibit a range of $\ell ^{p}(\mathbb{Z}^d)$-improving properties for the discrete spherical maximal average in every dimension $d\geq 5$. The strategy used to show these improving properties is then adapted to establish sparse bounds,…
In this article, we address endpoint issues for the bilinear spherical maximal functions. We obtain borderline restricted weak type estimates for the well studied bilinear spherical maximal function…
We investigate the $L^p$ mapping properties of maximal functions associated with analytic hypersurfaces in $\mathbb R^d$, with a particular emphasis on the role of transversality. Around points that are not transversal, we show that the…
For 24 years, it has been an open problem to obtain improved bounds, for the maximal function over a sparse sequence of discrete spherical averages, going beyond the range for the full discrete spherical maximal function. I formulate a…
In this note we show that the strong spherical maximal function in $\mathbb R^d$ is bounded on $L^p$ if $p>2(d+1)/(d-1)$ for $d\ge 3$.
We initiate the study of the $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z}^d)$-boundedness of the arithmetic spherical maximal function over sparse sequences. We state a folklore conjecture for lacunary sequences, a key example of Zienkiewicz and prove new bounds for…
In this article we prove a maximal $L^p$-regularity result for stochastic convolutions, which extends Krylov's basic mixed $L^p(L^q)$-inequality for the Laplace operator on ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ to large classes of elliptic operators, both on…
In this paper we prove an analogue of the discrete spherical maximal theorem of Magyar, Stein, and Wainger, an analogue which concerns maximal functions associated to homogenous algebraic surfaces. Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a homogenous…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathbb{M}$ associated to averages along families of finite type curves in the plane, defined by $$\mathbb{M}f(x) \, := \, \sup_{1 \leq t \leq 2} \left|\int_{\mathbb{C}} f(x-ty) \,…
We show that the discrete lacunary spherical maximal function is bounded on $l^p(\mathbb{Z}^d)$ for all $p >\frac{d+1}{d-1}$. Our range is new in dimension 4, where it appears that little was previously known for general lacunary radii. Our…
We prove three results concerning convolution operators and lacunary maximal functions associated to dilates of measures. First, we obtain an $H^1$ to $L^{1,\infty}$ bound for lacunary maximal operators under a dimensional assumption on the…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathcal{M}$ associated to averages along families of hypersurfaces $S$ of finite type in $\mathbb{R}^n.$ In this paper, we prove that if $S$ is a finite type hypersurface which is of…
This paper is about spherical maximal functions with general dilation sets acting on functions in weighted $L^p(|x|^\alpha)$ spaces. Aside from endpoint cases, a complete description of the allowable ranges of $p$, $\alpha$ is given in…
We study $L^p$ boundedness of the maximal average over dilations of a smooth hypersurface $S$. When the decay rate of the Fourier transform of a measure on $S$ is $1/2$, we establish the optimal maximal bound, which settles the conjecture…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\M$ associated to smooth hypersurfaces $S$ in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. For $p>2,$ we prove that if no affine tangent plane to $S$ passes through the origin and $S$ is analytic,…
Let $H^n\cong \Bbb R^{2n}\ltimes \Bbb R$ be the Heisenberg group and let $\mu_t$ be the normalized surface measure for the sphere of radius $t$ in $\Bbb R^{2n}$. Consider the maximal function defined by $Mf=\sup_{t>0} |f*\mu_t|$. We prove…
We establish multilinear $L^p$ bounds for a class of maximal multilinear averages of functions on one variable, reproving and generalizing the bilinear maximal function bounds of Lacey. As an application we obtain almost everywhere…
We study a generalized spherical means operator, viz. generalized spherical mean Radon transform, acting on radial functions. As the main results, we find conditions for the associated maximal operator and its local variant to be bounded on…
We prove that for a finite type curve in $\mathbb R^3$ the maximal operator generated by dilations is bounded on $L^p$ for sufficiently large $p$. We also show the endpoint $L^p \to L^{p}_{1/p}$ regularity result for the averaging operators…
